Feature MIL-DTL-26482 SI qualification provides MIL-spec compliance and reduces rework, accelerating project timelines while ensuring traceable performance in aerospace and defense programs. Business impact: faster qualification cycles and lower lifecycle risk, applied to rugged interconnects in aviation, military ground vehicles, and high-reliability automation. Application: use in panels and enclosures that demand robust environmental performance and certified connectors. Feature 34 solder cup contacts enable dense, reliable solder terminations across 34 circuits, improving assembly integrity and reducing harness weight through optimized routing. Business impact: improved signal integrity and fewer field failures, enabling cost-effective maintenance in aircraft, naval systems, and industrial machinery. Application: suitable for complex harnesses where space is at a premium and soldered connections are preferred. Feature 1/3 Bayonet coupling with a square flange receptacle delivers fast, vibration-resistant mating and secure panel mounting. Business impact: quicker assembly in the field and reduced misalignment risk; Application: sensitive avionics bays, vehicle mounts, and rugged test rigs. Feature Cadmium plating and aluminium shell deliver corrosion resistance with lightweight structure. Business impact: longer service life in outdoor or harsh environments and improved payload capacity. Application: aerospace exterior panels, defense vehicles, and outdoor industrial installations. Feature Backshell adaptor and straight backshell design simplify installation and improve EMI shielding continuity, while Layout 34, Shell size 22, and 44 mm length support compact, modular harnessing. Business impact: easier retrofits and scalable upgrades; Application: retrofit projects and new build-outs in constrained spaces. Feature 53.4 g weight and 34-contact configuration provide a balanced mix of robustness and manageability. Business impact: reduced assembly labor and predictable field performance; Application: panel-to-cable transitions in avionics, robotics, and heavy equipment. Common objections about copper/nickel plating or environmental impact are mitigated by verified specifications and compatibility with REACH requirements, ensuring compliance without compromising reliability. This combination of features supports design-for-serviceability and predictable lifecycle costs in demanding industrial settings.

FAQs
The 85100A2234S50 uses a square flange receptacle with a straight backshell and 1/3 bayonet coupling. Align the connector orientation to N, insert the mating plug, and rotate the bayonet to lock. Use the adaptor backshell if required and ensure solder cups are properly tinned for 34-terminals. This approach minimizes misalignment and speeds up field installation.
MIL-DTL-26482 SI qualification confirms the connector meets stringent military performance standards for interconnect reliability, vibration resistance, temperature range, and environmental exposure. For aerospace and defense programs, this reduces qualification risk and supports certification timelines while delivering consistent electrical performance.
Yes. It operates from -40 °C to 125 °C, uses cadmium plating on an aluminium shell for corrosion resistance, and complies with REACH environmental requirements. This makes it suitable for outdoor, vehicle, and harsh industrial applications where long-term durability and regulatory compliance are essential.
The connector uses 34 solder cup contacts with a socket (female) contact gender and standard 1/3 Bayonet coupling. It is a square flange receptacle designed for straightforward mating with compatible plugs, offering reliable solder-term connections and robust EMI performance in tight spaces.
Product length is 44 mm, height 40 mm, and width 40 mm, with a shell size 22. The 53.4 g weight provides a balanced profile for aerospace and defense harnesses, enabling predictable space budgeting and easier integration with backshells and harness assemblies.
